Egypt Issues New VAT Guidelines for Exported Services, Standardising Tax Treatment and Procedures

  • The Egyptian Tax Authority (ETA) issued Executive Instructions No. 45/2025 to standardise VAT treatment for exported services.
  • Exported services are defined as those provided by a registered entity in Egypt to a recipient outside the country, including remote services.
  • Such services are subject to a zero VAT rate, allowing input tax credit, except for services related to immovable property in Egypt or those requiring both parties’ physical presence in Egypt.
  • A comprehensive guidance manual in Arabic and English has been published to clarify rules and procedures for taxpayers.
  • The manual is available on the ETA’s website.
